“I find peace and care in interacting with my two pets, particularly in walking my dog. This time allows us to nurture our relationship while simultaneously giving me leeway for meditation. My daily interaction with nature encourages me to reflect on the significance of care in more than human worlds. The ongoing pandemic is enlightening to how all aspects of life on this planet (flora and fauna) could flourish with less human interference.”
